The organization's lead actress honors were shared by Cate Blanchett, for her role as a mentally unbalanced widow in Woody Allen's "Blue Jasmine," and Adele Exarchopoulos, for her performance in "Blue Is the Warmest Color" as a high school student who falls in love with a young woman studying art in college. The New York Film Critics Circle also named Blanchett best actress last week.

There was also a tie in the voting Sunday for best supporting actor, with the honors going to James Franco as a rapper/gangster named Alien in "Spring Breakers" and to Jared Leto as a transsexual suffering from AIDS in "Dallas Buyers Club."

Leto won the New York Film Critics Circle award last week. And there has been a nontraditional Oscar campaign for Franco spearheaded by A24, distributor of the low-budget indie film directed by Harmony Korine.

The L.A. Film Critics Assn. named Bruce Dern best actor for his performance as an elderly man who believes he's won a magazine sweepstakes in Alexander Payne's "Nebraska." Dern, who won best actor at Cannes, also was the National Board of Review of Motion Pictures' top pick last week. The L.A. critics' runner-up for lead actor was Chiwetel Ejiofor in "12 Years a Slave."

Lupita Nyong'o received supporting actress honors for "12 Years a Slave" as the plantation slave Patsey. Runner-up was June Squibb for "Nebraska."

"Gravity" won the most prizes of any film Sunday, picking up four. Cuarón won for best director and shared editing honors with Mark Sanger. Best cinematography went to the film's Emmanuel Lubezki.

LAFCA and the Academy of Motion Picture Arts and Sciences have rarely agreed on best picture winners. The last time they did was for 2009's "The Hurt Locker."

Best music score went to T Bone Burnett for "Inside Llewyn Davis." Runner-up was "Her" by Arcade Fire and Owen Pallett. ("Her" was also named best film last week by the National Board of Review.)

Production design honors went to K.K. Barrett for "Her"; runner-up was Jess Gonchor for "Inside Llewyn Davis."

Spike Jonze was the runner-up for best director for "Her." Cinematography runner-up was Bruno Delbonnel for "Inside Llewyn Davis," and editing runner-up was Shane Carruth and David Lowery for "Upstream Color."
